Dear Lost Souls,
With Nigel Tufnel Day safely
in proverbial hindsight, we now stare down the barrel of another holiday
season; with its rising crescendo of codified revelry, institutionalized
kindness and opaque reflections on the passing of another numerical benchmark.
Black Friday looms, and that means that this is your last chance for repose
before the steady winds of commerce blow helter skelter across our
socio-cultural bow, irreverent in the face of domestic and international economic
woe. But just before the precipice, in that moment before the gravity of the
inevitable takes hold, there is a pause, pregnant with curious anticipation for
how the pageant of familiar rituals will unfold on this particular circuit of
the celestial orbs.
Oh yes, my Bonnie
Spheremates, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening. Once again we will
gather around our communal hearth, (this week) welcoming a pair of
distinguished dignitaries from the North Land, and squeezing out the last drops
of Indian Summer before we settle into the season of gathering gourds and
decking avenues with artificial wishing stars. To celebrate, we humbly offer
our usual mix of low expectation, alchemical musings and mélange of familiar
strangers, seasoned with the pleasure of your presence.
Cocktails will be served at
7.30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your primary
venue . . . or to linger indefinitely.
Yours,
The Cabana Boys
